This section of statute also requires each county health department to develop, jointly with the district school board and the local school health advisory committee, a school health services plan. The local school health services plan must include provisions for vision and hearing screening.
Around age 3Â½, kids should have eye health screenings and visual acuity tests (tests that measure sharpness of vision) with their pediatrician or family doctor. Around age 5, kids should have their vision and eye alignment checked by their pediatrician or family doctor.
My daughter, now 15 months old, almost never made eye contact when being held/fed. She would make contact if she was laying in front of me or sitting at a small distance - but not when being held close. My husband and I have less than great vision and our pediatrician referred us to a pediatric Ophthalmologist.
